bill the hypocrite;
get your facts straight:
A. we also started out "bad" (i.e. airbus) and went in the "right direction".....(i.e. after america west "negotiated" their last collective bargaining agreement they still made less than a jb airbus pilot)..
ouch
B. when you done sniffing your newark smog enlighten us on the difference in pay between jb and united airbus pilots.........
ouch
C. we dislike the 190 payrates, but rest assured, if that a/c is profitable, there will be a raise.. i guess well have to suck it up until it happens. just like the continental pilots did throughout the 90's. (didnt southwest pilots make more than co pilots during that period??? oh, thats rights you started out "bad" after being in business for how long??????
ouch
thanks for going in the right direction, it only took you guys 30 years??
p.s. please enlighten us on how your "givebacks" 2 years ago helped other legacy carriers go in the "right" direction?????? OUCH
